On Memorial Day we can begin our meditation with this prayer, as a reminder of the sacrifice made by those who died in freedom's call. If we as a whole pray for peace on Memorial Day there will be less bloodshed beginning right now, because those who would be ruthless will have their mind softened by the peaceful thoughts and prayers of the masses. This is how we can all do our part in all meditations for peace every day of the year.
Memorial Day Prayer
"Our tribute goes to all who gave
The cause of freedom with their life
Serving fully with strength and valor
Freedom's call for peace their strife.
To see the goal of freedom for all
They're peacefully laid to rest
Hope was emblazoned in their hearts
Can we do less than give our best?
And for our children
Generations to come
We owe them peace
... A world family as One.
To give our best and realize
That those who gave their all
To keep our country strong
For freedom's call.
Deserve a memorial forever
In our lives, in our hearts
... All year long.
Memorial Day:
Remembering those
Who made the greatest sacrifice
Their life."
